but if an array is not passed - i'd like to return false
so can i set the defaultvalue to false and the expected data type to [] ?

Ohh nice, thanks found the control type, it's exactly what I was looking for

@Neviothr#0132 How about
// Because lineIntercets needs ASL
_aiPos pushBack (getTerrainHeightASL _aiPos + 0.1);
// Check if the player sees the position
_intersections = lineIntersectsSurfaces [eyePos player, _aiPos, player, objNull];
? Just a simple addition instead of a vectorAdd
@mortal halo Try it

default value type does not matter

ive converted a ghosthawk into a uav, but when a player controls driver/gunner his view camera pos is in the seat (since no human model?), any way to use a GetIn EH to change the crew camera pos?
does getIn even trigger when someone controls a uav?
lusty canyon
you guys took too long to respond, so i had to ask the losers in #cfg, now i feel dirty and violated.
still forum
does getIn even trigger when someone controls a uav? no
Because you are not getting into anywhere
And his camera pos should be in the camera
@regal geyser Everything is wrong on there
you are getting the position of a marker.. but providing an array instead of a marker. and then you are trying to select a random element from that position (which only has 3 elements) using a completly outdated method
BIS_startingPos setMarkerPos ((BIS_spawn getMarkerPos) select (floor (random (count BIS_spawn))));
That is what you are doing
and yes.. an array is not a marker. so the error is completly correct
BIS_startingPos setMarkerPos (getMarkerPos (selectRandom BIS_spawn));
There is a correct version..
regal geyser
Oh. Yeah, I'm bad at this. I've been analyzing old BIS inits to try to figure this out
still forum
Also you were not actually calling getMarkerPos with BIS_spawn as argument.. you were trying to call BIS_spawn which is not a script command with getMarkerPos which is not an argument as argument
lusty canyon
@still forum quote: And his camera pos should be in the camera
if you mean the view the the typical uav driver hud, that camera pos is fine
but when you switch views back to the internal cockpit view then your view is where your balls are
still forum
the argument goes to the right side. Check the Wiki
regal geyser
Thanks for the correct version.
tough abyss
@still forum that would probably work, and be more efficient.
regal geyser
I have been messing with this for way too long but I've been working off an old init and so my code is all convoluted and outdated because I've been learning from convoluted and outdated inits
so thank you so much
i can't believe it was that easy

Also I'm quite sure the error message didn't just tell you "error in expression".
RPT first lists the error. then location.. and under that it prints "error in expression"

RPT?

how do i check if my cursortarget is a TREE? isKindOf "tree"?
little eagle
A tree cannot be the cursorTarget
lusty canyon
how bout an intersect object?
little eagle
Sure.
peak plover
cursorObject
Returns the object under cursor. This command is quite different from cursorTarget as it is more precise in determining the boundaries of the pointed at object and can detect a larger variety of objects including map objects and trees.
so how do i find out if its a tree? can be vanilla and/or cup trees
peak plover
Not sure if it works, if it doesn't just use https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/nearestTerrainObjects
nearestTerrainObjects [player, ["Tree","Bush"], 200];```_object in nearestTerrainObjects [_object, ["TREE", "SMALL TREE"], 0]
gonna attach a rope to a tree the player is aiming at so gotta be accurate
little eagle
I like this to check if a thing is a tree.
lusty canyon
so all trees in tanoa churnarus altis whatever are all child class of "TREE"?
little eagle
No, that's why this method is better.
They don't share a base class and this is one is more like a classification.
All trees share.
lusty canyon
so "TREE" is like a config property? like isTree = 1?
indigo snow
Trees baked into the map arent "real" objects and dont necessarily have a config entry
lusty canyon
so i can check it like this?
_beg = eyePos _myPlayer;
_end = (_beg vectorAdd (_myPlayer weaponDirection currentWeapon _myPlayer vectorMultiply 500));
_array = lineIntersectsSurfaces [_beg , _end, _myPlayer, objNull, true, 1, "GEOM","NONE"];
_targetObject = ((_array select 0) select 2);
if ( _object in nearestTerrainObjects [_object, ["TREE", "SMALL TREE"], 0] ) then
{
// yes its a tree now rope it
};
I think it was something in the model. But I can't remember for sure.
lusty canyon
trees has which LODS? GEOM FIRE VIEW? which one to make sure intersect hits a tree?
little eagle
trees and ropes, huh ๐
lusty canyon
monkey business
cant wait to watch war for the planet of the apes!
so will turn arma into apetopia irst
little eagle
A3 trees have VIEW, they all should have GEO and FIRE GEO at least in the trunk.
lusty canyon
whats the best LOD args i should go for?
little eagle
Chernarus trees don't have a VIEW geo by default iirc, which is why the AI can see through them in A2...
sage belfry
_array = lineIntersectsSurfaces [_beg , _end, _myPlayer, objNull, true, 1, "GEOM","NONE"];
_targetObject = ((_array select 0) select 2); could also return an empty array
lusty canyon
how can you make intersect check all the LODS of an object?
little eagle
You can only have two.
lusty canyon
ill then just have to run intersect multiple times covering all LODs until the tree is hit
the higher up the player aims at the tree the less likely intersect will be reliable?
tough abyss
Anyone mind explaining all the LOD types (fire, view, geom, ifire and none)?

I want to make a convoy stop once a random guy is shot in the convoy, I am doing this by a trigger and setting the fuel 0 for all the cars. and i gave names to all the people in the convoy so i want that if any of these guys is shot the script will activate
so i want to do something like !alive en1 or !alive en2 or etc

shot as in hurt or shot as in dead?
Why don't you just do !alive en1 or !alive en2 ?

@little eagle, adding private to those variables as described did not fix my problem.
I am trying to run a script in a composition. It can't be run from a file.
little eagle
I answered how to set the variables private scope. Didn't read the convo above.
shadow sapphire
Ah! Okay, thanks.
shadow sapphire
I need to run a script as part of an Eden composition and have it run when the composition is placed. Anyone know anything?
This is basically the script:
Sleep 1;
_G2 = [(getPos thisTrigger), INDEPENDENT, ["I_officer_F","I_soldier_UAV_F","I_Soldier_TL_F","I_Soldier_GL_F","I_Soldier_LAT_F","I_Soldier_AR_F"],[],[],[],[],[],180] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;
Sleep 1;
_G3 = [(getPos thisTrigger), INDEPENDENT, ["I_Soldier_SL_F","I_Soldier_GL_F","I_soldier_F","I_Soldier_AR_F"],[],[],[],[],[],180] call BIS_fnc_spawnGroup;
Sleep 1;
{
{
_x execVM "Gear\FN_CentralGreen.sqf";
_x setBehaviour "SAFE";
} forEach units _x;
} forEach [_G1,_G2,_G3];
[_G1, getPos leader _G1, 3000] call BIS_fnc_taskPatrol;
Sleep 45;
_G2 copyWaypoints _G1;
Sleep 45;
_G3 copyWaypoints _G1;```It appears @little eagle has a solution.
still forum
what is the problem. Why doesn't it just work?
shadow sapphire
It won't use a local variable, but if I use global variables, then the scripts will be stepping all over themselves.
little eagle
Eden complains about local variables, because this game is retarded.
still forum
GG Bohemia
shadow sapphire
It seemed to accept it.
Now I just have to figure out a decent activation method.
@little eagle, can you not use sleep commands inside calls?
little eagle
You can use sleep inside calls.
shadow sapphire
Hmm...
little eagle
But you can only use sleep or any other suspension command inside the scheduled environment.
little eagle
Since it complains, you're probably operating in the unscheduled environment.
shadow sapphire
I'm running it from an editor placed trigger, if that helps.
little eagle
To enter the scheduled environment, you have to use spawn (or execVM).
shadow sapphire
Interesting. It never complained when I was using this script as an sqf. Are sqf files treated differently in that way?
Thanks so much for how much help you give me all the time, by the way. You're always teaching me stuff on here.
little eagle
No, it depends entirely of the environment you're operating in.
shadow sapphire
Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure I'm not retaining enough.
little eagle
init.sqf runs in scheduled environment.
Every eventhandler in unscheduled.
You can use
canSuspend
to debug the current environment.
shadow sapphire
Could I wrap my script in spawn {SCRIPT};?
little eagle
Sure, but keep in mind that spawn has a fixed return value (a SCRIPT type for this command), so you have to use an assignment with a throwaway variable, OR wrap it all into an additional call.
Otherwise the Editor complains again, because this game is retarded.
shadow sapphire
AH! interesting. So I could do call{spawn{SCRIPT};}; or something of that nature?
I thought it was an OR type scenario between call and spawn.
little eagle
Yes, except that spawn is a binary command that needs an argument on the left side too.
Even if it's just an empty array or 0 as throwaway value.
polar folio
is it possible to disable lobby slots based on conditions? no idea when the slots are established or if it's possible at all. deleteVehicle from the init line is happenign to late it seems
shadow sapphire
0 spawn {};?
little eagle
Yup, DEL
shadow sapphire
@polar folio, I know for a fact that you can disable lobby slots, but my way would be hacky.
little eagle
@polar folio Since the lobby is created before any script of the mission is run, I'd say no.
shadow sapphire
@little eagle, you can kill the unit.
little eagle
But how do you kill the unit before the first mission script ran?
Also what if it's a mission with respawn? Delete the unit?
polar folio
oh dude. i have zero issue with hacks if they do the job ๐
shadow sapphire
Sounds like he does need it too early for my solution.
polar folio
ah k
shadow sapphire
If you need it before players can join the lobby, then I can't help you, haha.
polar folio
yer ideally it would atleast feel clean on the clients side. kinda want to avoid screen messages a la "you chose the wrong slot pls go back to lobby"
shadow sapphire
@polar folio, actually, I do have a solution for you, MAYBE.
little eagle
Script your own lobby :S
polar folio
i guess i could do it the dayz mod way with a shitload of civ slots and then move them into groups
yer kinda like that. but then how do i avoid people having to fully join to find out that player limit is reached
shadow sapphire
If you want like a certain ratio of players to be certain things or something, you could use the skiplobby command, then just place down the units in your mission in the exact order you want those slots occupied.
polar folio
?
shadow sapphire
Place them all ungrouped and enable dynamic groups for a little more flexibility.
little eagle
Isn't there also a forced auto balance or am I thinking of enemy territory again?
polar folio
mostly aiming for it to be clean for someone who joins. i can come up with ways to do it after the lobby but ideally i would like to have someone know they can't participate before they join
shadow sapphire
@little eagle, will I be able to use 0 spawn in multiple scripts or will I have to start using 1, 2, etc.?
polar folio
did someone successfully hack the lobby dialog? i guess i could add a message there and disable the join button, if max players are in
little eagle
It's just a throwaway argument. _this becomes 0 inside your spawn-block.
The game has as many zeroes as you want.
shadow sapphire
Ah, gotcha.
That's good. Now my problem is this. Wait one.
Error in expression <call {
0 spawn {

shadow sapphire
Now it's not working at all and complaining about that. Before it was complaining about and skipping sleeps, but it worked otherwise.
Haha, Arma, always something.
little eagle
When you start a scheduled script with spawn, thisTrigger is no longer defined.
shadow sapphire
FUDGE. Any way to define that one internally? Holy cow, haha.
little eagle
It's the ideal candidate to pass as argument instead of the zero.
shadow sapphire
Yeah?

@little eagle, my script as posted above is working perfectly thanks to you!
What is this that you've posted most recently? A more efficient way of doing something?
little eagle
It explains how passing variables works.
You write something on the left of spawn or call and its value becomes the value of the _this variable inside the CODE-block.
shadow sapphire
AH! Okay, sounds good!
Now that it's working, I need to work on some randomization and the like.
little eagle
Imo, you should tweak it a bit.
// init.sqf
MyTag_fnc_spawnGroups = {
...
};
// trigger box
call MyTag_fnc_spawnGroups;
That way you can edit these functions with a text editor and don't have to use the ingame boxes.
shadow sapphire
I edit it in NotePad++ then past it into trigger boxes at present.
little eagle
Well that way you don't need to change anything in the trigger and could use multiple of them with the same function.
shadow sapphire
That's a solid copy. Sounds good.
_x setFormation [(selectRandom ["COLUMN","STAG COLUMN","WEDGE","LINE","FILE","DIAMOND"])];```Arma is saying this needs to be a string. How do I make it a string?

And that's the buy menu array
little eagle
Only the mission makers would know. Looks to me like you can't do it. At least like that.
You could do this...
Use the ACE_Box_82mm_Mo_HE class
And then add an init event script to this class to fill the crate yourself with script commands.
lusty canyon
are the mission scripts not unpackable?
little eagle
You mean the PBO?
lusty canyon
yeah just unpack the pbo
worthy zealot
yes they are unpackable
little eagle
Well, everything is unpackable.
lusty canyon
the you can trace how the author makes the buy menu? only BIS can make ebos?
or can we make ebos too?
little eagle
The sentence sounds funny.
worthy zealot
ebos?
little eagle
"everything is unpackable"
lusty canyon
encrypted pbo
little eagle
You can't make EPBO's yourself.
lusty canyon
can you get the contents of a populated crate in the INIT? or the crate is still empty on INIT phase?
little eagle
No, it will be full. Otherwise clearItemCargo this etc. wouldn't work.
worthy zealot
What am doing is am taking away the virtual arsenal and i want players only to be able to use BAF mod content so i want to add one crate with all BAF weapons uniforms ect to the fob buy menu. i can make a custom crate with all that in the editor and place in the world and i can also add crates to the buy menu. but i am new to scripting and i have no idea where to go from there

Anyone else who thinks it would be nice with a command like return and then value instead of just putting value in order to return data?

Theoretically Intercept could
rotund cypress
Hmm
Why would you use breakOut at end of scope?
It's gonna end execution either way
little eagle
You can put it anywhere, I'm just not very creative.
shadow sapphire
Is there an event handler that is linked to AI switching behaviors?
little eagle
No.
shadow sapphire
Drats.
rotund cypress
Of course you can put it anywhere, but why use breakOut when it's not needed? @little eagle
breakOut is for stopping execution
little eagle
...
rotund cypress
At end of scope it will end anyways
shadow sapphire
Any way that I could have it where whenever a group switches to COMBAT mode, it switches all allied groups within a certain radius to AWARE and gives them a waypoint at the nearest identified enemy?
little eagle
while loop
rotund cypress
onEachFrame
shadow sapphire
Hmm... I don't think I'd be able to do that.
little eagle
I really doubt you want to check this every frame.
shadow sapphire
I'm working on a system that covers a map in AI bases and patrols, so performance is a huge deal.
rotund cypress
You could use a lazy eval, and check what frame it is on
so it won't check that unless it's every like x frames
shadow sapphire
Hmm... I'll have to think on this more.
rotund cypress
if (diag_frameno % 50 isEqualTo 0) then {
if _myCondition then {do what you want here};
};
};```@shadow sapphire could do something like that
or addMissionEventHandler ["EachFrame", { if (diag_frameno % 50 isEqualTo 0 && {myCondition}) then { do what you want here }; };
shadow sapphire
Is there a set frame cycle? Or maximum I can check, like fifty or could I do a check once every thousand frames or something?
rotund cypress
Or if you want to create a thread for "_i" from 0 to 1 step 0 do {sleep (x amount of time); do what you want};
halcyon crypt
I'd switch to a time based thingy
shadow sapphire
Time based would probably be my go to.
rotund cypress
You could also switch to time based with eachFrame
shadow sapphire
But I'm not opposed to anything that gets it done.
halcyon crypt
at 120 fps this diag_frameno would do 2x the work in the same amount of time as 60 fps
assuming that it's linked to the fps ๐
rotund cypress
Yes ^
shadow sapphire
Well, it'll be on a dedicated server, which is locked to fifty cycles per second.
halcyon crypt
EachFrame + time thingy is fine but you're probably better of doing a spawned while since it's not really time critical at all
as @little eagle said
rotund cypress
private "_lastCheck";
if (time > _lastCheck) then {
do whatever....
_lastCheck = time + (minutestosleep * 60);
};
};```Could do that as well
halcyon crypt
that won't work
rotund cypress
Which I think is good because then you don't have to create a thread
halcyon crypt
_lastCheck goes out of scope every frame
rotund cypress
You sure?
halcyon crypt
I'm not sure sure but I'm pretty sure ๐
subtle ore
Underscore would make it unusable in other scopes
subtle ore
Good question - > but i does. I probably should've said for future reference
The private making it even more so
subtle ore
Terrible time even
rotund cypress
Well, undefined variable in expression time
subtle ore
Oh no. Time to use sqf lint ๐
little eagle
You guys are making this way too complicated I feel like.
subtle ore
Yes, indeed.
rotund cypress
@little eagle Do you know if local variables will be undefined in next frame in OEF handler?
indigo snow
They have to be, theyre not subscopes of each other
little eagle
Just like how local variables in a GetIn eventhandler wouldn't carry over.
subtle ore
So you'll likely want to send any params to a fnc?
rotund cypress
When you put it like that in makes sense @little eagle
I mean, SQF are known to have weird things so...
little eagle
That is why I said it this way. Thanks for noticing.
rotund cypress
Wouldn't be surprised if they were defined
halcyon crypt
when you want to do EachFrame stuff that's time based then you'll probably want to wrap it in a per frame handler as CBA already did
rotund cypress
What, pass arguments into next frame?
halcyon crypt
nah just in general
halcyon crypt
it basically keeps an array with functions and the delays they run at
and there's 1 EachFrame thingy that goes through that list and calls the functions in it when needed
used to have a much more simple example than what's currently in CBA but don't have it anymore
that's the core of it though
rotund cypress
Could've read if it weren't for the 100000000 macros
little eagle
I think DEL is more likely to ruin something than he can save by not just using a while loop with a sleep.
Could've read if it weren't for the 100000000 macros
Sounds like a personal problem to me.
rotund cypress
Was on about the whole of CBA
little eagle
Like 99% of them are GVAR and FUNC though^^
rotund cypress
For example, what is the reason behind this? #define IS_ADMIN serverCommandAvailable "#kick"
little eagle
Someone asked for it.
little eagle
I used them in my section of the code and defined them there.
rotund cypress
For new users it will be very hard to learn
little eagle
And I was asked to move it to the main file.
serverCommandAvailable "#kick" is horrible to read.
I never can remember which one is for voted and which one is for logged admins.
So I put these in the local header file.
But as I said, they wanted me to move them to the common one.
So... ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
halcyon crypt
it's quite useful actually
little eagle
In cba_common GVAR(xyz) is cba_common_xyz
It's used so you can move files between components (and mods) without having to rewrite their pseudonamespace.
halcyon crypt
I don't use the macros myself but I see how they can be useful ๐
little eagle
FUNC is the same just FUNC(xyz) is cba_common_fnc_xyz
rotund cypress
I see how something can be useful with macros as well, like defining a number to a more suitable name to that number
rotund cypress
I doubt it's 95% ๐
little eagle
Measured per use it probably is.
rotund cypress
Why have a bunch of macros in your hpp that never gets used?
little eagle
Half of them are legacy.
rotund cypress
Aah
little eagle
E.g. EXPLODE_N is basically the same as params is now.
rotund cypress
Aah I see
I just never saw the point in making things to obscure code
New people are just going to learn the macros, not the syntax itself
little eagle
You get used to GVAR and FUNC quickly and the PREP framework instead of CfgFunctions and then you can't go back.
The syntax doesn't change with any of this though.
rotund cypress
Of course not, it's essentially just an alias
little eagle
But on the other hand, apparently half this channel scripts their mods in the debug console, so help is beyond them anway.
rotund cypress
Wot? ๐
halcyon crypt
always wondered about PREP. In what way is it better than CfgFunctions?
would it make sense to move an existing code base over to it?
halcyon crypt
I guess it's also mostly about prefixes
little eagle
You can edit / add / remove PREP all the time, while you would need config file patching enabled with CfgFunctions.
Because it's all script based.
Also with CfgFunctions, you can make use of recompile for all functions.
But in ACE that would mean adding like 40 seconds to every restart just to recompile everything.
With PREP you uncomment one line in the local header file and it takes not even a second for one component.
I'd go insane with CfgFunctions.
would it make sense to move an existing code base over to it?
Probably not. I see it as a part of the build environment. So if you start from scratch you can use the example addon that is somewhere on github I think and start something from there.

im gonna start working on a virtual inventory system (@little eagle ) so I can finally go about remaking the whole inventory system. i need advice on how to network it properly for multiplayer tho

And if you wanna read the code and understand what it does. Which is the definition of readability. You can just ignore GVAR and that stuff.
And because the code is much shorter it's easier to read
And if you want to use the variables in your own code. GVAR is just modname_component_varname
On Github you already have the component in the filename which is displayed in big letters right above the file you are looking at.
If you unpacked a pbo you also have the modname in the path.

hi all, im hoping someone can help me...
im trying to create a tank factory, what im trying to do is to activate a add action that would spawn a tank if certain conditions are met.
For instance if a number of fuel barrels and ammo crates are detected in trigger area i want it to activate a add action that would give the player a option to spawn a tank.
im currently sitting with a trigger that can spawn a tank if playr is detected, my next step is to have the trigger only activate once required fuel and ammo is detected in trigger area
how do i script a trigger to activate once certian number of items are detected
halcyon crypt
count ((getPos thisTrigger) nearObjects [typeName, radius]) > 10
should be able to use something like that for the trigger condition
replace typeName with the class of the barrels and radius with the radius you want to check

dumb shits should actually use CBA lol ๐
and I don't think CBA adds any new events by itself
indigo snow
Actually there are a few.
still forum
Variables carry over to lower scopes. That's why you can manipulate the _myVar in the higher scope
When you access a Variable in Arma it always searches from lowest to highest scope and uses the first variable it finds
by using private you create a new variable in the lowest scope. So the engine will always use that then
halcyon crypt
@indigo snow ah cool, didn't know about that
lusty canyon
those player events can be used on ur AI too or not?
indigo snow
No, they behave like mission event handlers in that they dont have a specific target
Just the player
lusty canyon
it looks like when a unit open a chute they become a vehicle?
while (true) { if ( vehicle _myCunt == "Parachute_Classname" ) then { // chute is open? };};
They are inside a vehicle
They don't become one
Besides a Unit is always a vehicle theoretically
lusty canyon
vehicle keyword should get the parachute they are inside right?

yes

so does the condition work or not?
or i could just go vehicle _myCunt != _myCunt to cover all parachutes?
or is there a parachute parent that i can isKindOf?

Check config viewer if there is a parent
if you just check if he is in a vehicle it would also return true for any other vehicle
no your condition doesn't work. vehicle returns a object not a string
lusty canyon
oh right forgot the typeOf
but yeah i gotta include mod chutes as well. i guess ill just run the loop check while unit is freefalling so if they become a a vehicle chute must of opened. (unless they are doing hollywood A TEAM stunts)
are IRL chutes disposable use once only? is BIS trying to simulate that by force dropping the chute bkpk when you hit the ground
still forum
In IRL you pack the chute back into the bag after you landed
lusty canyon
then you can go back up and halo again with your same chute?
tough abyss
.-. no
You can't jump with the parachute again after you packed it, it has to be folded in a particular way for it to open correctly.
I also didn't know they pack the parachutes after they landed I thought that they just leave it like that

Yeah.. And by "Packing it" I meant folding it exactly that way
If you do it you can. And Helo jumpers certainly know how to do that

In the middle of combat probably not

yeah doesnt make sense: its like "UNDER FIRE TAKE COVER!"
" SARGE WAIT IM STILL PACKING MY CHUTE!!"

And if they don't plan to helo again they probably also wouldn't fold it correctly
tough abyss
@lusty canyon When I say "combat" I didn't mean under fire
I meant in a combat zone
I'm reading here from a paratrooper:
I was a paratrooper for 2 years. In combat, the chutes would be discarded. But for training jumps, we would deflate the canopy, fold it up and stuff it into a bag that we carry in a compartment on the parachute harness. Then we would carry it to the waiting logistics trucks to bring it back to base. When we are done with the day's jumps (there may be more than one jump in a day), we head back and hang the chutes on 3-storey hooks and shake them out, then pack them back into the bags for the rigger folks to prep them for the next jump.

im trying to activate a trigger once condition is met...
Condition must activate once 5 item are present, 3 barrels and 3 ammo crates.
this works fine on cond count ((getPos thisTrigger) nearObjects ["CargoNet_01_barrels_F", 5]) > 2 but i need it to count/check that there are ammo boces aswell
it should be like this count ((getPos thisTrigger) nearObjects ["CargoNet_01_barrels_F" plus "B_CargoNet_01_ammo_F", 5]) > 2
so it should count to see if there are more than 2 barrels and more than 2 ammo boxes before condition is met
little eagle
count (thisList arrayIntersect [barrel1, barrel2, barrel3, crate1, crate2, crate3]) == 6
count (thisList arrayIntersect entities [["CargoNet_01_barrels_F", "B_CargoNet_01_ammo_F"], []]) >= 6
@little eagle thx for that but i was hoping that the barrels it would not have to be named as the barrels will be spawned in periodicly during the game, but ill give it a go

sorry i should have specified, players will place items on trigger area which will activate the trigger...i then want those items in that trigger area to be deleted

shadow sapphire
Ah! Okay, yeah, my solutions are tailored for different purposes for sure.
indigo snow
You can just deleteVehicle them
You already have a list of them you count, so you can delete say 3 from both lists
tame stream
im still learning scripting so not to sure how to utilize that command proparly, how would i structure the script within a trigger's on act:
in my senario id have upto 3 CargoNet_01_barrels_F.
how do i combine the command deleteVehicle with the object type CargoNet_01_barrels_F to achieve the desired result
deleteVehicle _CargoNet_01_barrels_F; obviously won t work
indigo snow
sure but entities "BOX_ind_ammo_F" inAreaArray thisTrigger would for example give you an array (list) of all ammoboxes in your trigger
just delete three of those
vivid quartz
deleteVehicle expects object
indigo snow
e.g.
{
deleteVehicle _x;
} forEach (entities "B_CargoNet_01_ammo_F" inAreaArray thisTrigger select [0,3]);
wasnt sure about the order of inAA vs select
little eagle
It might be different for STRING vs ARRAY
tame stream
ok great lemme give it a go
little eagle
in STRING it's the length of the result.
indigo snow
wiki says same for array
indigo snow

I hate that the ARRAY version has "count" mandatory, while omitting the "length" for the STRING version makes it select everything to the last char.

hi all :)
how can i have a delay on a addaction once its been activated, example...
walk to object with addaction
activate script via addaction
addaction disapears/deactivates for 30seconds
30 seconds later addaction reappears/re-activates and ready to execute script again
halcyon crypt
you'll have to keep track of the time someone used the addAction and then test whether the current time - last time used is more or equal to 30 seconds in the addAction condition
tame stream
well i was hoping its possible to disable the option for 30 seconds after its been activated, then have it back to just execute the script again
halcyon crypt
yeah that what the condition thingy is for
if that condition doesn't return true it'll hide the action
tame stream
ok but i have not idea how to do that
currently i have the addaction working fine but the delay has me stumped
how would i go about adding a condition to check if time has passed?

if you use a script instead of a code block then put the setVariable thingy in that script

nevermind, mine doesn't work as promised, since you need for every addaction a new script. I recommend using marcel's version.

hi guys. I'm using this "1 man tank" script which allows me to control the turret of a tank while driving it. I'm getting this bug that accumulates the "Get out" user action every time I enter and exit the vehicle. If I enter and exit a few times this happens.
"Get out"
"Get out"
"Get out"
This is the script I'm using:
private ["_v", "_laser"];
_v = _this select 0;
_v call {
if (isServer) then {
_this lockCargo true;
_this addMPEventHandler ["MPKilled", {
if (isServer) then {
_d = driver (_this select 0);
_g = gunner (_this select 0);
if (!isNull _d) then {deleteVehicle _d};
if (!isNull _g) then {_g setDamage 1};
};
}];
};
if (!isDedicated) then {
_this addEventHandler ["GetIn", {
_tank = _this select 0;
_unit = _this select 2;
if (vehicle player != _tank) exitwith {};
_unit allowDamage false;
_unit action ["EngineOn", _tank];
_unit action ["MoveToGunner", _tank];
_tank addAction [localize "str_action_getout", {
(_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 2);
(_this select 1) action ["GetOut", (_this select 0)];
}, "", 3, false, true, "GetOver"];
_tank spawn {
waitUntil {!isNull gunner _this};
_ai = createAgent [typeOf gunner _this, [0,0,0], [], 0, "NONE"];
_ai allowDamage false;
_ai moveInDriver _this;
waitUntil {!isPlayer driver _this; !isNull gunner _this; };
_this lock true;
enableSentences false;
};
}];
_this addEventHandler ["GetOut", {
_tank = _this select 0;
_unit = _this select 2;
_unit allowDamage true;
deleteVehicle driver _tank;
_unit action ["EngineOff", _tank];
_tank lock false;
}];
};
};
can anybody immediately see were the problem is?
still forum
Yes. You are never removing the getOut action.
still forum
Oh yeah... Please use
```sqf
<code>
```
Makes it far easier to read
and use params. also makes it easier to read
You only have that one getOut action? What happened to the default getOut action?
nocturne basalt
dunno.. I found this script. Didnt write it myself. I don't know too much about sqf scripting. basic stuff really
still forum
My thought is that you already have a "Get Out" action by default. If you use that instead of the one you added then yours won't be removed
nocturne basalt
so you're saying I should just remove this?
(_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 2);
no sry. this I mean
(_this select 1) action ["GetOut", (_this select 0)];
still forum
if (!_tank getVariable ["hasGetOut",false]) then {
_tank addAction [localize "str_action_getout", {
(_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 2);
(_this select 1) action ["GetOut", (_this select 0)];
}, "", 3, false, true, "GetOver"];
_tank setVariable ["hasGetOut",true];
};
this will prevent your action from getting added multiple times
nocturne basalt
thanks alot @still forum I'll try it
halcyon crypt
you can only "GetOut" once with that though
nocturne basalt
oh?
halcyon crypt
ยฏ_(ใ)_/ยฏ
nocturne basalt
@still forum didnt work :\
what about this?
_this addEventHandler ["GetOut", {
_tank = _this select 0;
_unit = _this select 2;
_unit allowDamage true;
deleteVehicle driver _tank;
_unit action ["EngineOff", _tank];
_tank lock false;
}];
this is just what happens to the tank when getting out isnt it?
still forum
yes
indigo snow
Ah, does that trigger when you get moved out by script tho
still forum
That doesn't make sense though. How does the action get added if my variable is set to true.
that doesn't matter though. as it does nothing to the action
indigo snow
Try adding some letters to it so its different from the engine one, what if its the engine one thats multiplying?
nocturne basalt
@still forum I was actually packing it in the wrong place lol. but when I tried your code
if (!_tank getVariable ["hasGetOut",false]) then {
_tank addAction [localize "str_action_getout", {
(_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 2);
(_this select 1) action ["GetOut", (_this select 0)];
}, "", 3, false, true, "GetOver"];
_tank setVariable ["hasGetOut",true];
};
I get this error
still forum
if (!_tank getVariable ["hasGetOut",false]) then { -> if (!(_tank getVariable ["hasGetOut",false])) then {
still forum
I find it weird to have the ! outside of the if condition
But I'm also doing that alot myself
nocturne basalt
now it worked, but I can only exit the vehicle once
Once I enter it again, I can never get out
it is 2 when Im in
and 1 when out
never 0
should this be (_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 1);
instead of
(_this select 0) removeAction (_this select 2);
?
I'm a little closer now. now I always have a "Get out" action when standing by the vehicle. both when inside and out
but it dont accumulate

just wondering because i have a time limit that i sync and last test certain players had and caused desync but others were totally fine.
yes BoGuu you are right. it's a bit of a lazy solution atm

a single number every second definetly won't cause desync

already changing it but i was wondering how touchy force syncing like that is. i mean ideally i wanna make code that potentially works well no matter the number of players

If the time is just ticking down as normal, you can avoid pvar'ing it every second
polar folio
yer that would be my next question
isn't there still stuff happening that might desync mission time?
or is it totally tied to system time?
polar folio
ah k. i just have a mission time limit bleeding down. so doing sync every 10 seconds should be enough to keep all synced

Would a for loop nested in a forEach do anything to the forEach's _x ?
indigo snow
No, unless you use _x for your for loop instead of the common _i
tardy yacht
Alright, thanks!
But somehow, _x here is nothing.
_num = "";
{
for [{_i = 0}, {_i < 5}, {_i = _i + 1}] do {
_x = _x + (str floor(random(10)));
};
} forEach [_num];
From what I've read, _x should be a reference to _num here.
hint _num returns absolutely nothing. Not even "".
Might it be that _x lost its reference when moving to the for loop?
It's got nothing to do with the latter. Is _x still a reference to its original like in Arma 2?
still forum
Should work from what I can see.
Can you show how you really wanna use that? Your code is useless
little eagle
Yeah, this code does nothing.
_x doesn't exist in the scripts main scope, only in the forEach-block scope. And it can't leave to the main scope anyway, because as a magical variable, it's set to private to the forEach-block.
And _num is never changed.
tardy yacht
I'm having trouble understanding what you mean. Are you saying _x is undefined in the for loop? Shouldn't _x be a reference to _num when used in the for loop?
One wiki entry on forEach talks about _x being a reference of its original (_num in my case), assigning a new value to _x should assign it to _num from what I understand.
The entry is from 2010 though, which means it was from Arma 2. But I might be using forEach wrong anyway.
little eagle
_x is undefined in the main scope. The most outer part of the script.
still forum
there are no string references. You can only have references to arrays
little eagle
_x is not a reference to _num. It just has the same value. Only ARRAY's are passed as reference.
still forum
_num = [""];
{
for [{_i = 0}, {_i < 5}, {_i = _i + 1}] do {
_x set [0, (_x select 0) + (str floor(random(10)))];
};
} forEach [_num];
_num = _num select 0;
Assigning a new value would stop making it a reference, even if it was an ARRAY.
And nothing changed in that regard since A2.
private _num = "";
for "_i" from 1 to 5 do {
_num = _num + str floor random 10;
};
Now for the commy version:
private _num = random 1 toFixed 5 select [2];
I'm new here what's the commy version?
little eagle
It's when I turn your script into a one liner.
little eagle
I posted it already

here is my commy version:
private _num = "";for "_i" from 1 to 5 do {_num = _num + str floor random 10;};

Anyone knows as to why endMission only works once. I got a mission where people get booted back to the lobby if there not enough players on for that slot. And it seems to only happen once (on mission start). But after that they don't get "kicked" by endMission. (if they rejoin in that slot or any other slot that should end their mission.) And if I try to execVM my script via debug console it "kicks" me.
I diag_log'd the whole path and it all runs correct, but endMission is just not doing its thing...
same behaviour with BIS_fnc_endMission.
Adding a sleep of 2 seems to have fixed it. looks like the endMission was done too soon.

im trying to spawn a dead unit
im spawning it as vehicle to reduce performance impact (im willing to spawn alot of those)
but i dont want the animation to be visible (the unit needs to seem dead)
is there any way to do it? the most i could achieve was to set damage and hide, then unhide
but the ragdol dont always finish at the specific time interval between the hiding and unhiding.
has anyone an idea how to approach this, perhaps on a different way?
found a solution for the approach i've taken, which is to wait until velocity is [0,0,0]

@distant egret if it's MP better use https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BIS_fnc_endMissionServer

@digital pulsar it's only to kick a single client.
That ends the mission for everyone

force respawn then?

That will just respawn them?
digital pulsar
well depends on respawn settings
distant egret
It's for a locked player slot. I don't want everyone to get into it.
But a 2 sec delay seems to have fixed it so ๐
So if someone gets in the slot that shouldn't he gets brought back to the lobby because his mission is ended.

Dedmen you asked me earlier how I was using the snippet I posted, I'll answer with another question if you don't mind. It's supposed to generate a phone number for the player and then save it in the database. Now my question is, I have to check every time a number is generated for its existence in the database. Every player has 3 numbers (1 for every faction). Should I make a DB call every time I generate a number like this:
_nums = [];
for [{_i = 0}, {_i < 3}, {_i = _i +1}] do {
_num = random 1 toFixed 5 select [2];
_query = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cellphones WHERE civ_nid = _num OR cop_nid = _num OR med_nid = _num"
if (_query isEqualTo 0) then { _num pushBack _nums }
else { _i = _i - 1};
};
